Winehouse's father, Mitch Winehouse, told The Guardian how the fitting tribute came to be: "I had a meeting with Camden council and they told me they don't usually allow statues until 20 years after someone has died, but in Amy's case they made an exception...It's a great honour to have the statue in the Stables. Amy was an integral part of Camden and still is, so you couldn't really think of putting a statue for her anywhere else, could you really?"

The statue will be a life-size brass sculpture, and Winehouse's remaining family members have been involved in the design process with artist Eaton.

It's a fitting tribute to Winehouse, whose voice and talent were truly one-of-a-kind and, three years after her passing, still remain relevant as ever. "Of course it's a double-edged sword, because they don't put statues up of people who are still with us," Mitch continued.
